V-Switch Cluster Configuration
IN THIS
CHAPTER You can configure a V-Switch cluster using two V-Switches of the
same type. A cluster is a group of storage units and switches that
function as one unit for virtualization and provide high
availability in the event of V-Switch failover.
A cluster can be configured between two V-Switches using CLI or
SANRAD’s StoragePro management GUI. We recommend using
StoragePro for its simplicity of use, particularly for cluster
configuration. For more information on configuring a cluster
using StoragePro, consult the StoragePro User Manual and on-line
help system. If you prefer to use CLI, continue with this chapter.
If your network still contains only one V-Switch, you can skip this
chapter and continue with Chapter 7 “
Volume Exposure &
Security ”.
